2007 May 23rd - Doing the "To Do" List

Wednesday, May 23, 2007


To do list - updated!
Category: Life

Make will appointment made for Wednesday 30th

Ring dentist to cancel appointment for three days after operation (obvious reasons) sorted - they can't book me in for anything before my op so me and the kids will have to wait til I'm recovered enough to climb on the dentist chair!

Write list of "things to take to hospital" list has been started!

Write list of "people for mum/sis to update on my progress whilst in hospital" basically my phonebook and anyone who reads this will be updated, so that's sorted I think (plus sis will take dictation )

Remember to put all provisional social arrangements in diary to avoid forgetting all about them until I've already slept past the arranged meeting time......oops. I'm getting better at this!

Get appointment with GP for sicknote and note allowing reflexology woohoo a really lovely lady on reception, explained I could ring repeat script line and request renewal, but as I asked about note for reflexology she looked and has an appt tonight just after Reiki! Fantastic, I'm on a bloody roll today!

Finish weeding stupid horrid nettle hedge that is choking my boundary fence grrrr Ahem, sorry what was that..........say again? say again? summink about curry?

Finish weeding the drive (stupid rain ruined all my hard work encouraging previously unrecorded growth spurts in existing weeds) as above...... a nice madras?

Do the bloody ironing, it's ridiculous having clothes I've not worn in months just for being lazy does not compute.........

Take printer back to shop can't do that today as I'm waiting for decking to arrive

Also done today - purchased a new mobile phone with a fabbo 3.2mp cam on it, instead of my current 2mp for a bargain. I've justified this on account of I'm selling my last free upgrade which I decided I don't prefer to Sony Ericsson and should make most of the money back, also put a pair of shoes on Ebay and my son's old phone, scouting the house for more stuff to cover the costs - but basically it's like a free camera innit.........? And it's not shoes. Or clothes. Or jewellery it's like a proper erm...investment, yes that's it it's an investment (cor those shopaholic books are an inspiration).

Managed to get stupid man's thread (advertising iffy cancer cures via MacMillan) REMOVED!

2007 May 19th- Gardening

Green, green grass of Holme.
Category: Life

Thursday was rubbish, I had a headache all day, felt crappy and miserable - so I stayed in bed ALL day until 7pm when I got up to watch TV. Threw some food together, scraped a bit more paint and paper from the living room ceiling and that was about it.

Luckily the sun was shining today AT LAST so after lunch I got out to finish digging up part of the lawn for the deck area, I had a square yard left but it's just been too wet to dig for the last few days.

Alex came round to measure up for materials and it should all come to £300 so it's just labour (I'm the free help).

Mowed the grass too (see pic) which is looking particularly lush from all the rain lately so I'm not complaining!

Fortunately you can't quite see all the buttercups and dandelions that are also lush and green...............

I've added a few more photos of pretty things, just for fun - they probably won't show for a few days Myspace have to make sure they're not photos of naked men or something.........as if!

Wow Lisa - your garden is looking good and well done you doing all that digging - best to do now tho as you won't be able too post op - have to be so careful after surgery!

I am so envious of your garden - me I have a concrete communal balcony, but that's all Central London has to offer except for the local parks! LOL

Take it easy my friend and try not to do too much - you have a lot going on at the moment with gardening and decorating!

Let's hope that we get back some of that sunny weather we had last month pretty soon!

love Caz x

Well ladies, my nearest pub, shop, cashpoint etc is 2 miles away and there are no pavements. I have no mains sewage and no gas (oil CH) and the average pay here is about £5-7K a year less than where I work 35 miles away - but on balance I love it here and am soooo glad I moved! It's going to be easier to recuperate here than a victorian terrace with a back yard and 20 neighbours in the house next door coming and going all hours playing crappy europop at all hours through paper thin walls.
